The IRIA Strategic Plan calls for implementation and subsequent accreditation to applicable ISO standards. The IRIA Advisory Board has directed that implementation of ISO 9001:2008 – Quality Management Systems be the first order of business.

The IRIA Strategic Plan also calls for further future ISO standards alignment relating to:

• Records Management
